It needs to be a manual function to give complete freedom and a truly full range of motion.

My space bar/0 key on my number pad isn't being taken up by anything, which is usually where the jump button is on the keyboard.

Gamepad users... well, I don't know how to answer that since I don't play with a gamepad.
It has been my experience that free jumping (say in Aion) creates just as many places to get stuck as it fixes your ability to get unstuck. I have yet to see an MMO with free jumping where it doesn't sometimes thinks you are falling when in fact you are trying to land on a slope (causing you to "fall" in place).
